Well, it depends on what you want. Do you have any art idea or direction for this?
This building reminds me kinda of the Austrian Alpen houses.

Yeah something a bit medieval-ish. that's what i always had in mind when i was making this but when I came to the textureing part i just dunno which way to go. sure i can stone thats gotta be wood and thats stone but the way to show is a bit argh if you know what I mean =/ next to that I dont know if it should be photo textures or handpainted (the latter i totally suck in lol)

I agree with some sort of masonry for the bottom half of the wall (i suggest brick), then stucco for the top with wood for the things that cross across it
perhaps wooden shingles for the roof?

I tried large stones at the bottom which looked ok-ish and wood for the crossbeams etc but the walls for the upper floors i dunno =/

try smaller stones (or, again, brick). and for the upper floors, again, try stucco, or some form of it
here's a reference to what i think: [link]

Ah stucco! In my mind I call it plaster

ya i couldnt remember what a better word for it was. but ya it can be hard finding good material images. i cant wait to see the finished product

Hmm how about some stone blocks for the main wall texture, wooden for the collumn support things LOL, and shingles for the roof, maybe dark brown? The windows could be gold glassed, and the window frames can be wooden like the collumns. BUT thats just the first to pop in my mind~
NICE work! You should take model commisions; I would totally request quite a few meshes. Also, you use Maya? Lucky!

your suggestion does seem to fit what i have in mind too, except for the gold glass lol... i'm thinking plain old glass
havnt done any architectural stuff like this tho lol
looking forward to seeing it finished!

And thank you ^_^ Model commisions O_o? what do you have in mind ( don't say character cause those I consider evul)
